For the past two weeks, we have hosted a new 4 day spiritual formation experience in the tradition of the Walk to Emmaus called Face to Face Encounter. This was the 5th Encounter for the Heart of Ohio Emmaus Community. 5 of the 19 were from Linden Road.
A team of 26 individuals, comprised of pastors and lay people have journeyed with 19 participants over 4 days. The Encounter is an adaptation of The Walk to Emmaus, Face to Face is specifically crafted to meet the needs and life-stages of older adults. The program seeks to invite men and women, ages 60 and older, to experience Jesus through a 4 day journey, covering subjects such as discipleship, mission, grief, and end-of-life issues. Led by clergy and lay leaders, Face to Face strengthens and renews followers of Christ and bolsters the spiritual life of individuals, families, and congregations everywhere. Face to Face is open to members of any Christian denomination who want to strengthen their spiritual lives, discover answers to their questions about faith, and are open to understanding the responsibility of living a Christian lifestyle.
